Filming or taking pictures on UvA premises

You will need official approval if you wish to record a film or take pictures on any of the UvA’s premises. By using the form provided below, you can submit a request to the events coordinator at the UvA’s Facility Services.

None of these activities may in any way hinder teaching, research and
operational management at the UvA. The university only approves requests with a
clear link to the UvA, such as an interview with one of its researchers or a
report about an activity taking place on its premises. An exception may be made
for films about a historic location managed by the UvA, such as the
‘Oost-Indisch Huis’ (East India House). Requests with a clear commercial purpose
will not be approved.

Please note: in order to process your request, you will need to submit it no
later than one week before the date on which you wish to film or photograph.
